  Cognitive Hygiene 101: Protecting Your Mind From Conspiracy Theories

  Sep 2, 202632 min

  Individual beliefs empower us. They embolden us with confidence and assuredness about issues we deem important. But what if some of our beliefs aren’t really ours? What if we are merely hosts to mind viruses that enter quietly and opportunistically, exploiting our trust and open-mindedness? No one is immune to misinformation. We all need to understand our vulnerabilities to protect ourselves and each other.. To better understand our vulnerability to misinformation, Positive Psychology Podcast Host Lisa Cypers Kamen speaks with philosopher, cognitive scientist, author, and founder of the Cognitive Immunology Research Collaborative (CIRCE), Dr. Andy Norman. To promote mental immunity, Andy examines signs of mental immune disorder, what makes some groups more susceptible to mind ‘bugs’ and mental hijacking, and how to talk to someone who believes misinformation. His cognitive hygiene habits offer mental immunity to those who prefer to think rationally and want to protect themselves from conspiracy theories. Like what you're hearing?

  Narcissistic Abuse: Healing, Navigating, and Ending the Drama

  Aug 19, 202629 min

  Understanding and navigating complex interpersonal dynamics is essential for building healthy relationships. In environments characterized by narcissistic abuse, with one or two narcissistic parents, children are denied the emotional safety needed to develop an independent identity. Instead, they learn to survive the abuse by stepping into predefined roles that serve the narcissist's needs. To define narcissism and discover how to navigate relationships involving narcissistic personality disorder, Harvesting Happiness Podcast Host Lisa Cypers Kamen speaks with a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist who has forty years of experience in public and private practice, Dr. Karyl McBride. Dr. McBride has focused on private research regarding parental narcissism, and the debilitating effects of narcissism in relationships. She describes the 5-step recovery process from her book, "Will the Drama Ever End? Untangling and Healing from the Harmful Effects of Parental Narcissism" and shares stories of the family drama experienced by clients on the road to recovery. Like what you're hearing?

  Procrastination: Skills to Overcome Fear of Failure and Anxiety

  Aug 12, 202634 min

  Do you have a chronic procrastinator in your life that just can’t seem to finish their task list? It’s easy to write it off as pure laziness or a lack of drive, but procrastination isn’t a time-management problem. At its core, the fear of failure and discomfort triggers a deep sense of shame, causing people to hit the brakes before they even start. To move past the cycle, we have to understand what is driving the behavior. In this productivity and mental health podcast, Harvesting Happiness Podcast host Lisa Cypers Kamen interviews Dr. Patricia Zurita Ona, a psychologist, author, coach, and TEDX speaker, about key ‘how to stop procrastinating’ skills. In Dr. Z’s book, “Acceptance and Commitment Skills for Perfectionism and High-Achieving Behaviors”, she lifts the veil of procrastination, demonstrating that it is not laziness but the fear of failure that inhibits people from completing tasks.

  *This episode explores human sexuality and is intended for mature listeners. As the percentage of young people openly identifying as LGBTQ+ continues to rise, social media has become a vital catalyst for empowering youth who previously did not feel safe expressing who they are.

To glean guidance from a researcher studying real-world experiences with LGBTQ+ identity development in adolescents, Harvesting Happiness Podcast host Lisa Cypers Kamen speaks with a Developmental Psychologist and Associate Research Scientist with the Kinsey Institute, Dr. Myeshia Price.
